FISCHER-BARGOIN, based in Thiers, Central France, is a company specialised in manufacturing professional cutlery and sharpening steels. The know-how of its Thiers-based manufacturing and the quality of its blades has raised the reputation of Bargoin knives and Fischer steels amongst professionals. The innovation and modernisation of our production tool have been at the heart of the family business for the last six generations, so that we can offer high-precision tools. In that way, our range – which was initially aimed at the meat trade – has been widened over the years to cover other areas of food processing: bakery, pastry, fish, cheese, and catering, and it has placed FISCHER-BARGOIN, the only manufacturer of sharpening steels in France, amongst the leaders of professional knife-making.

The « Made in France » stamping on our products guanrantees the manufacturing origin. From industrial processing on the blades of our knives and sharpening steels, to plastic handle injection on all our articles, our principle is to master each step in the manufacturing process.
